About Decatur Tree Service
Decatur Tree Service was started with a simple idea: this town deserves a tree care company that treats every yard like it's our own. We're not a national franchise or a call center dispatching strangers to your door. We're your neighbors — a small, local tree service company that has spent years learning the trees, the soil, and the streets of Decatur, GA, one job at a time.
Tree work is a craft, not just a task. It takes patience to read a tree's structure, judgment to know when a limb needs to come off and when it doesn't, and care to protect a customer's lawn, driveway, and landscaping while the work gets done. That's the standard we hold ourselves to on every job, whether it's a quick pruning or a complex, technical removal.
How We Got Started
Our founder grew up climbing trees in this area long before ever picking up a chainsaw professionally, and that early appreciation for trees never faded. After years of working alongside other crews and certified arborists, learning proper pruning techniques, safe removal practices, and the finer points of plant health care, the decision to start Decatur Tree Service came down to wanting to do things the right way: honest estimates, quality workmanship, and a genuine relationship with the community we serve.
Since then, we've grown by word of mouth. Most of our customers come to us because a neighbor, a friend, or a coworker recommended us after we handled everything from routine tree trimming to emergency storm cleanup. That kind of trust isn't something you can advertise your way into — it's earned one job, one honest estimate, and one clean yard at a time.
What We Believe In
We believe tree service should be straightforward. That means clear communication from your very first call, a fair and detailed estimate before any work begins, and a crew that shows up when they say they will. We believe in doing the work safely, using proper equipment and techniques whether we're handling a simple trim or a crane-assisted removal near a structure. And we believe that when we leave a property, it should look better than when we arrived — debris hauled away, the yard raked, and the work done right.
We're also committed to staying sharp in our craft. Our team keeps up with best practices around tree health, from recognizing signs of root rot and insect or disease pressure to understanding which treatments, like deep root fertilization or soil treatment, actually help a struggling tree recover. We'd rather tell a customer honestly that a tree can be saved with the right care than push an unnecessary removal.
Serving Decatur and the Surrounding Community
We're proud to call Decatur home, and we take that pride seriously in how we treat the people and properties here. Whether you need a certified arborist's opinion on a tree risk assessment, help after a storm, or ongoing lot maintenance for a rental property, our team brings the same local knowledge and honest approach to every job, large or small.

Customers choose Decatur Tree Service because we're licensed and insured, because our pricing is transparent, and because we treat every property with the same respect we'd want for our own. We're not the biggest company in the area, and we don't want to be — we want to be the tree service Decatur residents trust and recommend, one satisfied customer at a time.
